Closer Cap Toe

The Closer gets the job done — he’s the steady, unwavering rock people rely on in troubling times and difficult situations. Our cap toe shoe, or Oxford, is no different. Where other shoes fall flat, the Closer delivers. This shoe is as classic as it gets and never goes out of style — no matter the decade.

An undisputed champion, the Closer is a classic oxford lace-up with a burnished cap toe. In three essential color ways, the Closer pairs perfectly with a suit or slacks, elevating any look.

Italian full-grain calfskin upper

Ultra-soft sheepskin footbed lining

Wax-coated piped laces

Instant-forming memory foam footbed

High-density EVA foam heel

Phoenix TECH ™ Outsoles with long-lasting thermal rubber soles

Resoleable in the forefoot and heel

To begin caring for your shoes, clean the shoes with a hard-bristle brush to remove surface residue. Next, wipe the shoes with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry. Then, apply a coat of the appropriate color Saphir Shoe Cream with a cloth, paying close attention to the creases. Finally, to achieve a beautiful shine, apply a coat of Saphir Shoe Wax with a cloth and buff with horsehair brush or cloth.

Resole of my bannister and added the closer in honey to get me buy during the down time.

So far I am very pleased with what from Sheppard. I recently bought a pair of banister derby’s and a few days after wearing them the tip of one of them on the sole began to peel off. I contacted wolf and Sheppard and they promptly got me a label to send the shoes back, but since these were my only work shoes that I have I asked if they were willing to give me a nice discount on a new pair of clothes or Cap toes in honey color, and they said sure thing. The substantial discount help me get a pair of shoes on the way so I can get the other Santana soon as they arrived. Sadly UPS decided to lose the pair of closers halfway in route and because I am soon to go on a business trip I really needed to get my black shoes in for resole ASAP. I called customer service and they agreed to send another pair by two day air for free as long as I promised to mail the second pair of shoes back to them as soon as I got them. The second pair came in promptly and I was able to turn around and get my derby toe shoes back to them for A resole. Since everything took so long with the mistake in shipping etc. I was worried that I might not get my banister derby toe shoes back in time for my business trip, so I called and asked if I could pay for overnight shipping should I need to do that in order to get my shoes back prior to my business trip. They said they could absolutely let me know when they were ready and if I wanted to ship them faster at my expense they would absolutely make it happen, and that they would talk to the cobbler and find out how long they would take and call me back. I got the call back, said it would be expedited in the queue, and I got them back tonight in record time. The closer cap to in honey are great. My resole looks great. W&S customer service was spot on with the help. Although I’m a bit sceptical of overall fit and finish after the defective sole, I’m still standing by them as a company willing to make it right. I think they’ll get better and better as they grow and expand.

Customer Service

Loved the shoes, but had an issue early on with them that I needed sorted out. Without going deep into detail, there were a bunch of issues that followed suit. I was ready to give up on these shoes (not because I wanted to, I LOVED them for the short time I had them) and never use Wolf & Shepherd again. I had a great customer service person, who went above and beyond to fix and make up for the continued issues (shoutout to Evan, man deserves a promotion). I will now be buying Wolf & Shepherd shoes whenever possible for my various work shoe needs for a VERY long time!

comfort

easily the most comfortable and best looking dress shoes I've ever owned.
many people say there are better leather shoes from other brands, however, in terms of comfort- these shoes are absolutely unbelievable. i want a few more pairs but the price is costly!
